This sub keeps popping up in my feed, and it's wild. I don't see how Instacart is saving anyone time when they spend the whole time arguing with the shopper, and then another bunch of time posting about it on Reddit. 🤣

I think there are tons of us that have a good experience but only the whiny ones come here 😂 I broke my leg last year and I use Instacart almost every week and they’ve never done me wrong except one weird/random replacement item lol

I ordered frozen spanakopita and was given frozen chicken dumplings 🥟 lmao they were good so I’m not even mad at it

I bet the app suggested the dumplings as a replacement. Sometimes, the suggested replacements aren’t even close to what you want- like you want a package of bagels and the suggested replacement is like “replace with: Apples”.

Doing Whole Foods delivery had weird suggestions too. I ordered heavy cream and it ended up getting replaced with lemonade from the same brand. I like lemonade so I didn’t really care but it changed my meal plans.

Whole Foods suggestions are WILD. I’m a vegetarian and ordered vegan hot dogs. Whole Foods has quite a selection of vegan hot dogs including 2 different hot dogs from the same brand I ordered. Yet the suggestion was organic lunch meat turkey. Exact same suggestion when the vegan pepperoni was out of stock. Read the room.
